Which Angles Match
Part of the Angles section of Coddy's Geometry journey. Lesson 49 of 62.
The equal angles are opposite the sides with matching tick marks. Identify them from those marks rather than their position on the page. Rotating the drawing does not change which angles are equal.
In the figure the ticked sides run from the apex down, so the matching angles are the two at the ends of the unticked base: 40° and 40°, opposite the ticks. The apex, held by both ticked sides, matches nobody, and here it is the wide 100° corner. Ticks first, conclusions second.
